Vicky Pattison addresses 'anxiety' over Strictly partner after one remark from Pete Wicks
Former I'm A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! winner Vicky Pattison, who is among the famous faces taking part in Strictly Come Dancing this autumn, is currently waiting to find out who will be her partner Vicky Pattison admits she feels an 'anxiety' about taking part in Strictly Come Dancing after a comment from Pete Wicks. Former TOWIE star Pete took part in the show last year, competing alongside professional dancer Jowita Przystał. Pete, 37, and 30-year-old Jowita struck up a close friendship on the show, with speculation that their bond could have even led to a potential romance. Former I'm A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! winner Vicky, 37, was last week announced as one of the celebrities taking part in this year's Strictly. She will be competing with the likes of Premier League legend Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, former Lioness Karen Carney, Love Island star Dani Dyer, and model Ellie Goldstein. With the show due to get underway in the coming weeks, Vicky now faces a wait to find out which professional dancer she will be paired with. Speaking on her Get a Grip Podcast with Angela Scanlon, Vicky said: 'I do feel a certain level of anxiety over my instructor because I was talking to Pete about it and Pete was saying, Jowita who he danced with last year was the perfect partner for him in every way. 'The chemistry, the way she just understood him, it was all so perfect and I feel like the pressure is on to find someone you can have that bond and affinity with and I don't know, I feel really nervous. We have this thing coming up where you all go, all the celebs together, and I assume that's when I'll meet everyone for the first time, and we all start to learn this big group dance thing with the pros. 'I just feel like I'm going to feel unsure and everyone will be watching me thinking, 'She's a bag of s***e', and all the pros will be like, 'Don't want that one'.' Angela likened the experience to the 'first day at school'. She added: 'There definitely is a like…everyone is checking everyone else out. 'But it's almost like a first day at school and everyone's really awkward. It's really nerve-wracking.' Former reality TV star Vicky rose to fame when she appeared in Geordie Shore. She became an authoritative figure in mental health and addiction with her critically-acclaimed documentary Vicky Pattison: Alcohol, Dad and Me. After she was announced as one of the Strictly contestants, Vicky said: 'I'm absolutely buzzing to be part of this year's Strictly Come Dancing lineup... but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't terrified. I am not a natural dancer! 'However, it's such an amazing opportunity for me to step out of my comfort zone and to challenge myself in a completely new way and I just really hope I don't make too much of a fool of myself!" Pete, who narrowly missed a place in the final of last year's Strictly, admitted he grew "really close" to Jowita. Addressing speculation about their relationship, he said: 'I thinks it's the press that think that… We've said from day one that we're really good friends but they just want to do what they want to do. 'We don't let it bother us, really. We've become really close through this whole thing because you spend so much time together and we get on so well. 'It sounds really airy fairy when people say that, but it is the truth.'

TOWIE stars come to blows as they're dragged apart from each other in explosive showdown - as stunned star gasps 'I've never seen so much drama in Essex!'
A number of TOWIE stars came to blows as they were dragged apart from each other in an explosive showdown during Sunday's episode of the ITV2 programme. The popular reality show returned to our screens this weekend for its 36th series, which involved the cast jetting off to Portugal. At the start of the instalment, a Whatsapp message was brought up which was about how Freddie Bentley, 27, wasn't impressed with how any of his co-stars showed his support towards his best pal Ella Rae Wise, 25, while she was in the Big Brother house. Ella admitted that she expected some support from Jordan Brook, 28, his girlfriend Sophie Kasaei, 35, and the rest of the cast - however they failed to post anything on social media. Tensions started to rise as Ella confronted Jordan about it, while Freddie, Junaid Ahmed, 30, and Joe Blackman, 27, listened in on the sun lounges next to them. Dan Edgar, 35 - who is Ella Rae's ex boyfriend - is best mates with Jordan and told her: 'I would be wrong and I would be two-faced Fred, like you've called me in the past, if Dan is sitting with me going through a lot and I start posting about you.' Ella replied: 'Sophie wouldn't stand it if you went on a bender.' Sophie, who was sitting on a sun lounger, said: 'I actually wouldn't mind. I'd be with him, that's why.' Jordan told Ella: 'Yeah she wouldn't care.' 'Desperate,' Ella sneakily added. Meanwhile Amy Childs, 35, and Lauren Goodger, 38, were watching on from a distance and Amy confessed: 'Oh my God I can't even look!' 'It's been a long day. I know, I feel awkward, Lauren told her. Ella got up and removed herself from the conversation, to which Jordan told her: 'Don't call my bird desperate.' Sophie, 35, fumed: 'Who is calling me desperate?!' Jordan pointed at Ella and said: 'Her.' As Ella walked off she said: 'You're all meant to be in your 30s, grow the f*** up!' Freddie then chimed in and said: 'It's getting ridiculous.' Sophie walked over to Freddie and Dani and asked: 'What the f*** have we done?' Dani pointed out the couple and said: 'They're not the problem!' 'He is!' Freddie replied. 'He's getting involved in my conversation.' Jordan walked over and told him: 'I am not getting involved.' Becoming irate he added: 'I'm getting involved. I am trying to make peace here. You've got the hump with me. I'm making peace. 'I'm sitting here trying to make a conversation, I'm being a gentleman, trying to have a conversation.' Freddie explained: 'I don't understand why you haven't supported, it's literally all pathetic.' 'You're pathetic!' Jordan fumed back. Sophie chimed in: 'The messages?' Freddie replied: 'And you deserved it! You all deserved it. Deserved to be told about yourselves because at the end of the day if you don't care go away then.' The camera went back to Lauren and Amy, and Lauren said: 'I've never known so much drama in Essex in all my life.' Amy giggled: 'We're in Portugal hun.' Freddie fumed at Sophie: 'Don't even stand there and speak to me.' It then got very heated between the pair, with a lot of swearing, followed by Jordan pushing Freddie. 'Who are you pushing mate?!' Freddie shouted. Dani Imbert and Junaid even had to step in to break things up. Meanwhile the likes of Amber Turner and Chloe Meadows watched on in pure shock. Junaid told Jordan: 'Don't start on him,' before the pair skulked off in opposite directions.
